School of hard knocks we graduated with honors
Addicted the money infatuated with commas
The normalcy was rare we captivated by drama
For niggas who took they lick it was admiration and homage
Taught us don't be throwing no brick and hiding yo hand
And felony possession a get you five in the ca
The goal was for niggas to feel alive they can
You either hustle legit or you quick devising a scam like damn
Inspiration these niggas wilding without us
But all we ever wanted to do was silence the doubters
The phone call was tapped we still drove thirty hours
They saying time is money what make you worthy of ours
All them niggas around you who really gone ride with you
You niggas do a bid and start thinking you Guy Fisher
See y'all look at pictures instead of inside mirrors
The smoke is all gone I see through my eyes clearer, forrealla
Hold your applause don't clap for em
When y'all left ain't nobody came back for em
But now we back for em
Get it by any means you can rap for it even tote a Mac for it
Yeah
It ain't no love where I'm from
The skinny niggas die and the good die young
That's the way it is, the way it is
Tell a nigga that's the way it is, the way it is
Embracing all the flaws we still ball with blemishes
Ironic how the grammar what kept us away from sentences
The boys in the hood the sugar hills and menaces
Looking at genocide before we enter our genesis
Niggas from the jungle that turn gorilla with checks
Talking to myself I consult the realest I met
My Jewish friends still got a couple mill in the deck
These niggas saying they Jordan they Reggie Miller at best
Addicted to the game show commitment and disdain
Niggas offer consignment grant permission in exchange
Playing that Capadonna Rae and Rza in the range
Facilitate the vanilla with charisma and it's strange
They was talking zodiacs and retrogrades
We was doing anything to get the retro Js
That's at a point the game was built upon respect those days
You had to earn couldn't request those days just recollect nigga
Hold your applause don't clap for em
When y'all left ain't nobody came back for em
But now we back for em
Get it by any means you can rap for it even tote a Mac for it
Yeah
It ain't no love where I'm from
The skinny niggas die and the good die young
That's the way it is, the way it is
Tell a nigga that's the way it is, the way it is
